April 26 is National Pretzel day and today my family is celebrating with these delicious Mickey soft pretzels I baked up yesterday. Judging by how many my husband enjoyed, I think this will definitely have to be a repeat recipe in our house.

National Waffle day is coming up on March 25 and what better way to celebrate then with Mickey Mouse shaped waffles? If you have a traditional shaped waffler, it will work, but there is just something magical about a Mickey Shaped Waffle – especially smothered in an amazing bananas foster sauce!

Today marks 15 years since my dad unexpectedly passed away during the night from complications of pneumonia. I am still sad that I never got to say a final good-bye, but also relieved that he passed quickly and there was no prolonged suffering. We all knew he had extensive health issues, but I don’t think any of us were expecting to say good bye so soon.

About a month before Christmas I came across these behaviour sticker charts at Dollarama. I had actually looked over them on previous trips to the store, but after a week of trying behaviour from both my children I grabbed two out of desperation.

When doing my research for our Disneyland trip 2 years ago, it was hard not to become completely sidetracked by the pictures and reviews of all the amazing foods Disney has to offer in their parks. There are blogs dedicated solely to sharing the world of Disney eats and one could easily spend a large portion of their time in the parks hunting down and enjoying a variety of sweet and savoury treats plus fine dining meals.
